The EPAC Act of 2005 prohibits the manufacture of all old technology relating to T-12 fluorescents, and manufacture of T12 magnetic ballasts was discontinued in 2010. New T-8 and T-5 fixtures use electronic ballasts replacing the "old technology" magnetic ballasts. Electronic ballasts consume about half the electricity of magnetic ballasts. If your business has not yet upgraded its lighting, now is the time to act to avoid costly retrofits.
